Hi Paulo
Happy to see that my articles seems to be helpful from time to time!
Please add here some pictures and a short review if you was able to test!
Today I was able to find a german store for the bogout, what avoid the shipping/import from Bogout australia, but this saves not so much.
The bogout iself is pretty short, it can move mounted about 4m before it has to be refitted (what is exactly what we need in most cases. The Line to a possible near anchor is pretty short. Even with a bogout twin set (you can connect them), you should consider too a winch extension rope.
Mostly I was fine during my journeys with 30m Winchline - so we have to add at least a winch extender rope, a tree protector. Everything is lightweigt - but need some space.
I`m travelling solo and often far from civilisation. Even with not searching for an offroad adventure - it can happen too quick to get stuck in sand, snow or mud.
Something like Maxtrax for the cases without an Anchorpoint - seems still useful too together with an Airjack.
This is my plan for a new self recovery kit - for my next generation travelling car:

Makes sence for me for travelling solo, with 2 or more vehicles I would carry a lot less, as long as we avoid real sand desert.
